Well, I started out on a really nice sporterized m1917 and I'm very partial to them. I'm thinking about getting another one, but a custom left hand stocked rifle. When I work the bolt on this rifle, it brings back fond memories. Hope you guys don't look down on me for this, but for a hunting rifle, they fit me better and function a little easier than my sacred Pre 64's. I know it's blasphemous and I do apologize, but am being honest. The gun shop owner has had this particular rifle in the back of his safe for a couple years now and it may just come home with me in a few weeks...I'm thinking about re-boring it to 9.3x62mm and doing a few mods to it to make it a little more aesthetically pleasing. If I get it, I'll have it cerakoted like my 338 in midnight blue. I'll also refinish and re-contour the stock a bit. Pre64Hornet's thread made me want to start another project myself. I just wish I knew how to checker stocks!!!!!
